Polka_Rapper posted:Completely true. I've found that the chart generally is pretty accurate but I picked muzzle attachments based on what I liked. It so happened I liked most of the ones on the chart. Other than that, I run silencer on Fuze's LMG, Mute's MP5K, a few handguns, and something else, and compensator on Ash's R4-C and Hibana's Type-89. Frost's gun has recoil? What sight are you using? Adding to the attachment chat, doubling down on finding what works for you. I had to take the ACOG off of Echo and I've gone from hating his gun to playing roaming Echo for comedy. Fuze's AK is the other one I far prefer with a reflex.

Q8ee posted:If any of you have played Door Kickers, it'd be a real neat feature for Ubisoft to add a synchronised gadget / breach / whatever mechanic. So teammates put their breaching charges down, and then hover over it and enable it to be synchronised. Then when everyone fires their gadget, the last person to fire sets them all off and you all breach from multiple angles. And then you die because someone heard the breach charge and hops the window while you're trapped in the trigger animation. Neat idea, wrong game for it. Maybe classic style R6 though. Been dragging newbies around lately. It's funny hearing them now bitch about pubbies at low tiers boarding doors, Castle and walling in Kid's Room.

SSJ_naruto_2003 posted:I thought all a silencer did was lower the damage and sound, I didn't know it increased handling. BTW what's the difference between flash hider and compensator? Ingame it says the comp is much better but everyone is using flash hider from what I can tell. It doesn't, but removes tracers and masks sounds allowing you to compensate for a fuckup.

Jack Trades posted:This weeks challenge made me play a bunch of Echo and I discovered that he's actually a roamer. I've been playing Echo as a roamer for a while now, no one expects his fat rear end to walk up behind them while they're droned, it's hilarious. Really wish he was a 2/2 though. As for Mute, I've been leaning towards planting his jammers at key walls and anything else gets thrown in areas to make it harder to find roamers instead.

Q8ee posted:I love Ying's gadget, it's one of my favourites, but god drat I can't play her. People can still just look away and not get flashed, especially if they're tucked in a corner. So I'll trust in my gadget, only to enter a room full of people who can still see just fine. I've since stopped playing her. Ying's flashes ignore your facing. They're probably out of range. Roll more than one in on staggered timers.

Thief posted:way to miss the point. the majority of players in this game aren't getting headshots. shoot them with literally 1 more bullet ftw, big deal The gun's rate of fire is low enough that drat near any other gun is going to beat you to that 4th bullet. It's actually kind of a problem with using the drat thing. It also doesn't mesh well with her gadget. Someone should just give her the CS/LR17 or CS/LR14 or something. Or hell, the QBZ-95 Carbine with it's higher RoF. I've found uses for it. Those uses usually end with me wondering why I didn't take Fuze's instead though.

The Bananana posted:Thoughts on Castle? Situational at best, funny if you're trying to piss off your own team. Actually kind of decent on Tower though. As noted before, it's a mild nuisance most of the time, but if you don't mind taking risks you can do things like holding most of your barricades until the last minute of the match to bog them down, even better if they're short the breachers. Usually better to go Pulse if you want an FBI guy to burn down a house though. Also a boon to any enemy Fuze if you don't know where you're putting them and why.

TotalHell posted:Finally got this game while it was on sale. I have Gold edition so all the standard operators are unlocked, and they give you enough Ubibucks or whatever to unlock one additional operator from Years 1 & 2 from the get-go. So who do I go with first? I have 16 to choose from, I want to make this count. Unless you're really hard up for a newer operator, I'd save the monopoly money for skins you like or something. 25k renown doesn't take THAT long in the long term and almost all of the season 1 ops are still drat good. Otherwise Hibana or maybe Buck or Valkyrie. Comedy option: Echo for another ACOG defender. He's immune to Dokk's IRS Scam calls and can screw up the Holy Priest's buffs too now.

Jackal and Dokk are fun with him, if you've cleared the Secure Area obj, you can pop it to see where they're trying to approach from. Grabbing a hostage in smoke will let you catch them panicking. I like to use it as someone's trying to rush or if I'm about to peek a window since that'll sometimes catch people and/or make them afraid to get a better peek themselves. There's a few applications for him.

algebra testes posted:How do you Castle? I saw some pro league play where they castle up all but one entrance and try and funnel them in. Something like that? It depends on the map, game mode and objective in how you want to use him. In Tower, I like to castle those annoying windows, or doors that allow them quick access forcing them to waste either gadgets or time and making a ton of noise either way. If you get the south office spawn, you can hit the room to the west with an impact, castle the windows and hang out on the desk to watch people trying to approach from the reception areas. Barricade the reception desk to your left and you force them into some ugly spots too. Other than that, just talk to your team/roamers before you set up barricades so they know they're there so it doesn't get too awkward later/they save an impact if they have to hurry.

Should I just learn those until I get some hours under my belt or should I also get the year 1 and 2 people? It was said already, but I'll double up on it, learn the base operators. Avoid shield guys since they'll teach you bad habits. A good chunk of the later operators are best used with some map knowledge.

Jack Trades posted:Jackal's ability is already a double-edged sword, you can just as easily use the fact that you're being tracked to lure Jackal into a trap. Just want to immortalize this too. Dude, Jackal being able to say, "Hey there was doods here" without pinging them, with one of the better assault rifles in the game doesn't exactly make him bad. The fact that you can then make people do dumb things just by holding F on them adds to it. Also Mute.

That's the point being made in thread. I think he just needs to deploy poo poo and ping an area, which was supposedly his original concept.

Captainicus posted:I always thought the same thing about shields with traps behind them and such. I usually go for more off-the-wall placements, and try to avoid doorways and window ledges, but window ledges can be very good if you can't rappel above them so you need a grenade to get the trap out. I place them on black parts of the map or where there's poo poo on the floor already. The shower room on Kanal, the black spots on the carpet on Chalet etc.

Thief posted:mira is always a good pick imo. even if your team isn't coordinating reinforcements properly or some tryhard thinks they can backseat drive you, you can always just roam with her - which is both fun and also burns many seconds off the clock when attackers stumble into a strange setup that they're not used to encountering. House is about the only place I just can't figure out a fun place to use her mirrors short of on the stairwells. Dual shotguns on that map are fun though. Edit: The office maybe, people forget that poo poo's over there a lot.

Koramei posted:I know it's cool advice to have people just chill out and have fun but genuinely, don't pick Castle, you will more than likely gently caress over your team and make things actively less fun for everyone. The same goes for Mira to an extent, although once you've ground out enough renown for her you'll probably know enough to not screw things too much. Alternatively teach them how to barricade/Castle and watch as other newbies struggle with shooting feeties.

Thief posted:a breach pistol It's a real pistol. It's the Unica 6 in Battlefield 4 too if you played that. The barrel's lower than you think it is and uses a fiddly as hell firing pin. The design's to lower the felt recoil. Alibi looked like she was going to be more fun if the holos mimicked your stance/pose, but I can still probably get some mileage out of the holo thanks to snap firing. Maestro's drat fun looking, but I think I'd still prefer Valk's cams just because of the weird angles you can stuff them. If you're really that worried about Dokk, just tell your team where they are so they can be shot. You're nuts if you think Dokk makes Valk a bad pick. Ever.

News at 11. If your pubbies are the helpful kind of talkative (Not that rare) she's not going to be a bad pick. Try talking to people out of Discord. Alternatively, if you're playing with roamers or some objectives/maps, go Valk, if you're holding a smaller area, go Lesion (Or Maestro or anyone with a Bulletproof Cam now)
